We are filled with gratitude this Thanksgiving season. This weekend, we partnered with Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Church to deliver food baskets. This outreach reminds us how important it is to support one another.
Thank you to Mr. Rosta, Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. Morton, and Mrs. Brocksmith for their dedication and leadership. Your care for our community sets a wonderful example for our students.
We’re also thankful for all of our families and staff who are able to donate to our food drives and join in the many opportunities we have throughout the year to give back. Your support makes these programs possible!
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at UTSC! 🧡💚🦃#BearcatNation
